PART 1- SOY MILK

This is the first of 3 parts, the soy milk. We will be using the pureed beans from the soy milk for okara burgers, and the milk for a healthier alternative to bread pudding. So on to part one, making the soy milk!

SOY MILK

4 cups dried soybeans
Drinkable water

1. soak beans overnight in a pot of cold water.
2. drain beans and rinse.
3. blend each 1 cup of beans with 2 cups hot water, place back in pan.
4. bring to a boil and boil uncovered until it stops foaming (about 20 minutes). boil an additional 10 minutes.
5. strain through a cheesecloth over a colander. press the bean mash to get the last of the liquid out, and set this stuff aside (this is called okara, very nutritious. we will use it for burgers!).
6. Add 1 Tablespoon sugar or splenda and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
